VHHS National Honor Society Requirements
    (Section E.10 of the Student Handbook)

National Honor Society selection is conducted by a faculty council.  Candidates for membership are selected in the spring after the 3rd nine week period of the student's sophomore year.  A candidate must have a 3.3 accumulative GPA in all of his/her high school academic work.

Upon academic qualification the student will be asked to file an activity information form with the faculty council.  Students may also be evaluated by school faculty in the areas of character, leadership, and service to the school and community.  It is necessary to maintain a 3.3 GPA and high standards in the other areas or dismissal could result.   One grading period probation is allowed for bringing up these standards before dismissal.

In addition, each member will volunteer a minimum of 10 hours per semester for community service.  You will be given a form for your service record.  This form must have the date, number of hours you volunteered and the signature of the person in charge of the project.  Turn the form into the sponsor at the end of each semester.   Failure to complete the community service hours will result in the member being placed on probation.
